A competitor to Overwatch featuring environmental destruction, which makes it CPU heavy. DX12 and 12GB of RAM are the minimum requirements.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 286 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 206 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 111 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 5080 is 118% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2060 Super) for Marvel Rivals. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 83% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-10400).
At lower resolutions (1440p high), the Ryzen 7 9800X3D sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (all 4k settings), the GeForce RTX 5080 becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at all 1080p settings, 1440p (low/medium/ultra).
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1715.38. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 286 FPS, equivalent to 0.17 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages. Adjacent heavier settings are lightly stabilized to remove prediction jitter that would otherwise create impossible reversals.
At 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 5080 sets the ceiling at about 121 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D has headroom up to 157 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 23% (FPS gap: 36 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 4/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 8/12.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D and GeForce RTX 5080 stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across most presets, so neither side consistently suppresses the other by a large margin.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 22% | GPU Limits CPU 22% | GPU Limits CPU 22% | GPU Limits CPU 23% |
We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.
Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.
CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.
A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings and then monotonic-smoothed across heavier presets and resolutions, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with the GeForce RTX 5080 can run Marvel Rivals smoothly up to 4k achieving around 111 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 118% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 83% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1715.38 ($465.38 CPU + $1250 GPU). Your GeForce RTX 5080 provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end card with a significantly better value rating.
Your GeForce RTX 5080 is already a top-tier graphics card. While it's technically the limiting factor here (which means you are fully utilizing your GPU's visual horsepower exactly as intended), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Marvel Rivals performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra. CPU fully utilized at: 1440p high.
Marvel Rivals does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
Marvel Rivals requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 70 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-10400 and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 9800X3D and GeForce RTX 5080 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Marvel Rivals FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
